T. Hawley Tapping, general secre-

Vandenberg, Republican Senator

an honorary Master's degree from
the University in 1925. He attended
the School of Law here in 1901-02,
when he was 16, and was affiliated
with Delta TJpsilon.
Interested in an international or-
ganization and active in foreign af-
fairs, Vandenberg said in a recent
speech to the Senate, "I want maxi-
mum American cooperation, consis-
tent with legitimate American self-
interest, with constitutional proces-
ses and with collateral events which
warrant it, to make the basic idea of
Dumbarton Oaks succeed. I want a
new dignity and a new authority for
international law. I think Ameri-
can self-interest requires it."
After the last World War, Vanden-
berg became involved in the world-
league controversy. As editor and
publisher of the Grand Rapids Her-
ald, he fought the League of Nations
covenant because it had no reserva-
tions to protect American interests
and traditions.
Vandenberg, whose wife is the for-

of American history and an admirer
of Hamilton, whom he considers the

said. The new emphasis on inter-

of the expansion of world commerce
through aviation, Prof. Yntema ad-
ded.
For the past two years a study of
commercial instruments, the first of
the general divisions, has been made
and is now almost completed. Eleven

graph of the laws on commercial in-
struments in his country, which will
be published in the Michigan Legal
Studies, Prof. Yntema said.

University, the men, all recent grad-
uates of leading South American
universities, took courses here and
lived in the Law Quadrangle, Prof.
Yntema said. They represented
Brazil, Argentina, Venezuela, Para-
guay, Peru, Cuba, Colombia and Pa-
nama.
Four new appointees representing
Argentina, Brazil and Mexico, are
